I have nothing all that helpful to say, other than I'm another one of the jezzies out there rooting for you. I am sorry you're in pain; I have been there and am there now. I hope other commenters' suggestions do help.

1. I cracked my ex-boyfriend's rib.

We'd broken up, but it wasn't quite over. He wanted me to hear him out, and this translated to him following me off the train, down the street, and into the (very small) entryway of my apartment building. He was less than an arms length away when I reached for the door to the…

Are you trying to say I need to just suck it up and stop complaining? Because comparing my sister who I have to see all the time at family get-togethers to crazy people in the psych ward is kind of shitty, IMHO.

For some reason, almost all of these free haircuts are bobs. They aren't looking for people who'd like other kinds of haircuts.

Thank you for taking the time to share your tips. I so hate these roaches, and it's really nice that you would step up and try to help. We have exterminators in the building monthly. Is borax what they typically use, or is it something different?

The line starts here, girl!

I have lost the roach war. It is so dispiriting. I hate living like this.

Dick twins! Did you ever think you'd find yours? On the internet, of all places?

This was my second vibrator. Someone gave it to me when I turned 20. Back then, I had no idea what the fuck...16 years later, I wouldn't mind owning one.

I don't think I've ever liked a gif more.

Samurai Jack.

She has symmetrical features, large eyes, nice cheekbones, and generously proportioned lips. So yeah. I don't like her music, but I think she's pretty.

Born and raised in Chicago. While it's not so far from Detroit, I only had a vague idea of what was going on, before I read Charlie LeDuff's book. I've seen Detropia, heard of Searching For Sugarman. No idea about the others.

Help me understand your take on this. Maybe it would be more obvious if I were from your…

Why not? (Your link doesn't work.)

That's missing the point, though, isn't it.

People tend to hire others who are within their personal networks. You know their work ethic, you know their product, and you know you can get along with them.
While this can lead to some brilliant work, it can exclude a number of talented people, who don't happen to run in…

I think that's an interesting point, but - and I am only speaking for myself, here - these names are pedant bait. I'm one myself. It's hard enough, when reading, to ignore something that looks incorrect. It makes me itch when I find out that it's actually not a mistake. The part of my brain responsible for catching…

Said so much more concisely than me. Thank you, that's exactly it!

I also like M/M but have trouble finding quite what I like, and that, too, seems a question of gaze - I am enjoying the action, but if the camera were my eye, it'd be in a different place a lot of the time, and I think I may have different aesthetic…

For me, 'women friendly' is a matter of empathy. I don't want there to be barriers to my putting myself in the place of the woman on screen.

There are three steps in experience - *1)the man does something potentially stimulating, 2)woman enjoys it, 3)woman moans and writhes, and everyone (man, woman, audience) is the…

Oh, yes. I feel exactly the same way about this. Thank you.

I'm just curious how many people would need to tell you you're wrong, before you come to the conclusion that it might be you rather than them. If 20 people 'misinterpret' something, could it be...? Is the problem that they disagree, or that they're women, and feminists, therefore angry and wrongheaded ('pitbulls,…
